I have NOT found any 0 to 2 gauge blocks. You need to settle for getting a 0 gauge in, 0 gauge out. It's a good practice to take the 2 gauge ground wire from the amp to another block, and the final ground to your chassis should be 0 gauge, but you don't have to, you could just take the 2 gauge straight to the chassis. It's also good practice to use a fuse anytime you change wire gauges. |
